For those of you working hourly, are you paid time and a half for anything
over 40 hours? Say you are making $50/hour. Once you go over 40, your rate
goes up to $75.
If so, do you find it difficult to get that rate? In other words, does
management hangle and bicker with you and in the end make you end up working
for the $50 rate?
How practical is it for a skilled C# developer to work from contract to
contract? Short term: 3 - 9 months.
Thanks,

Not at the shop I'm working for now. Our system is much more fair.
You are supposed to do 40 hours of work each week. You can compensate in any
direction. Two weeks ago I worked 56 hours in a week and got two days off.
Last week I took another 2 days off and have to do +16 hours this week.
If my manager would suggest that I work extra for free he would get my
sincere laughter and a finger from me. On the other hand; shops that pays
extra for overtime, typically have overworked developers with no life.
There is more to life than a few extra bucks.

I think you have a good and "rare" setup. Good for you. Are you contract
or employed?

Employed, as an systems architect. We do work for other companies but do all
work in-house.
I like my job despite the fact that have had no raise in like 4 years now..
Oh well, compared to my fellow cow-orkers, I do earn a lot. =)

Many scripts and calendars call client side system time in order to
make presentations.
However, the client's time may be improperly set, if set at all,
and/or the relevant time may be from another time zone.
It would be of great value if the time of some central source could be
drawn, in the form of a ".js" file, into the script to avoid
dependence on the client's date/time.

Hi Guru's,
I have created a database to monitor hours I have worked as our payroll
department are so crap. I work nights most of the time but occasionally I
have to work on days. Between the hours of 18:00 and 06:00 colleagues get an
unsocial shift allowance. I have managed to get it to work out my gross
income for a 4 week period accounting for overtime ect but I am struggling
to get the unsocial shift allowance included.
All is well...

Guys,
I get this:
Regular Hours are any hours less than the number of hours that can be worked
before the hours begin to be counted as overtime in the period.
Overtime Hours are any hours more than the number of hours that can be
worked as regular hours in the period.
Doubletime is similar to overtime but at a higher limit.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
